Carpe Diem - Menu

Cute cosy cafe, nice vegetarian options, reasonably priced, would come again! Very well liked in the area it seems, was quite busy but very quick to get a table

This London restaurant is top-notch. The salads here are absolutely the best I've ever had, and Michael (along with his staff) is the friendliest chef you'll come across.

Great food at reasonable prices. Big meals so make sure you are hungry when you go. Seats are quite close together. Place is normally packed. Was lucky to seat in the corner this time. Other times I have given up because very busy.

My husband and I we went there to ask if they are still open to have a quick drink after a nice walk to the park, I'm heavily pregnant and i was really in need of a cold drink! The lady was very rude, she barely even make eye contact. I will never step a foot in such a place with such attitude people!

The restaurant offers exceptional breakfast and lunch options, with food that is always freshly prepared and not microwaved. The staff is friendly and attentive, although some could benefit from additional training. The only downside is that the restaurant can get quite cold, especially when the door is constantly opening and closing.

Today I went to Carpe Diem for lunch, and it was absolutely worth the wait for a table. The food is very good, £5.50 for a plain Omelette with Chips was great and the portion size too. The staff are absolutely lovely and ever so welcoming. A very nice atmosphere inside and the decor is outstanding. Without a doubt, the best cafe in Whetstone High Street and a very good selection of food!

Michael wrote me a review. However, even without his threats, I must say that Carpe Diem is a standout gem in the monotony of Whetstone High Road. The meals and drinks are fresh and beautifully prepared, and the friendly staff adds to the welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, you'll feel right at home in this great community space. I can't praise it enough - please don't make me stop, Michael!

Our little gem in whetstone. One thing going into a restaurant and another when every single staff member makes you feel like you are part of the family. How lucky we are to have this magical little restaurant. The food, the ambience. All is made with love and passion. Guys never change. We love you, the Calamari and The Steak. Whetstone would be nothing without you. Michael and Maria. Absolute diamonds. There is no other place. Other than Carpe Diem.

My first visit , weekday lunch and it was busy . The bistro is not big but the food was delicious ! My prawn risotto was flavoursome , rich and the prawns were fresh and juicy . Fresh orange juice was refreshing . My friends chicken salad was also v tasty . Food portion was so generous that I had to take away the left over risotto and my hubby also enjoyed it too! Highly recommend and definitely can’t wait to go back ! Can’t find parking space outside the bistro but we parked in the m and s nearby also went in to do shopping .
